These are 5th grade watercolors that were done several years back.

Blind Contour Drawing

This has to be my favorite blind contour drawing that any student has ever done.  A sixth grade boy named Peter drew this.  It looks so effortless and melodic.  I just love it!

Relief Sculpture - Grade 6

This is my pizza project that I did with some of my 6th grade classes.  Each student created their own slice of pizza from a paper mache constructed form.  They were encouraged to bring in recycled material to use for this project.  Designing emphasis was on the principles of art.  Students chose which principle they wanted to showcase on their pizza slice.  I think they are more fabulous in person, but it was such a fun project I wanted to share it.  There are so many variations you could do on this idea.
